Note: If you are using python, it is recommended to install version 2.79 or later. It will install the corresponding gobject-instropection together.
wget https://github.com/GNOME/glib/archive/refs/tags/2.79.1.tar.gz
tar -xzvf 2.79.1.tar.gz
cd glib-2.79.1/
rm -r subprojects/gvdb
meson build --prefix=/usr
ninja -C build install
ldconfig
34.3 run the test demo

Note: First you need to set the GI_TYPELIB_PATH variables to the the gobject-instropection you just installed.
# x86_64
export GI_TYPELIB_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/girepository-1.0
# Jetson
export GI_TYPELIB_PATH=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/girepository-1.0
python3 glib_version.py
